a8bceb392a iwlwifi: remove per-device debug level
There's no need for the per-device debug
level that we expose in debugfs since the
module parameter is writable in sysfs.

At the same time, simplify code by changing
    iwl_get_debug_level(shrd) & IWL_DL_ISR)
to
    iwl_have_debug_level(IWL_DL_ISR)

2655e314c4 iwlwifi: trace debug messages
Make iwlwifi record all debug messages into
tracing, even if debug_level is not enabled.
Due to the lack of APIs, the debug messages
are now recorded up to a max length of 100,
the only one above that is the RXON which is
not needed if you trace the commands as well
as it only dumps the command contents.

b36b110c57 iwlwifi: Suppress noisy syslog messages when RF_KILL switch engaged
When a station is associated with an AP and the RF_KILL switch is engaged,
numerous error messages were sent to the system log. The error messages
were the result of the failure(s) of the various submodules to perform
their tasks after the radios were disabled.

To resolve this situation, the messages were modified to use a new macro,
IWL_DEBUG_QUIET_RFKILL. This macro allows for the RF_KILL error messages
to be sent to the log provided that IWL_DEBUG is true and IWL_DL_RADIO
is '1'. For all other cases, the error messages resulting from an RFKILL
event will not be sent to the system log. Messages logged because of an
RFKILL will be tagged with the prefix '(RFKILL)' to clarify the cause of
the error.

d593411084 iwlagn: simplify the bus architecture
Call iwl_probe with a ready iwl_bus struct. This means that the bus layer
assigns the irq, dev and iwl_bus_ops pointers to iwl_bus before giving it to
iwl_probe.

The device specific struct is allocated together with the common iwl_bus struct
by the bus specific layer. The pointer to the aggregate struct is passed to the
upper layer that holds a pointer to iwl_bus instead of an embedded iw_bus.
The private data given to the PCI subsystem is now iwl_bus and not iwl_priv.

Provide bus_* inliners on the way in order  to simplify the syntax.

Rename iwl-pci.h -> iwl-bus.h since it is bus agnostic and represent the
external of the bus layer.

Implement that as a callback of iwl_bus_ops and use that callback instead of

instead of calling get_dev all the time.

02a7fa00a6 iwlagn: move IO functions out of line
This generates a massive reduction in module size:
with debug:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 670300	  13136	    420	 683856	  a6f50	iwlagn.ko (before)
 388347	  13136	    408	 401891	  621e3	iwlagn.ko (after)

without debug:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 528575	  13072	    420	 542067	  84573	iwlagn.ko (before)
 294192	  13072	    408	 307672	  4b1d8	iwlagn.ko (after)

This also removes all the IO debug functionality since
it can easily be replaced by tracing, and makes the
code unnecessarily complex.

I haven't done any CPU utilisation measurements, but
given that the hotpaths don't use much IO it is not
likely to have a negative impact; in fact, the size
reduction will reduce cache pressure which possibly
improves performance.

Finally, an unused function or two were removed.

3e4fb5faef iwlwifi: Tune radio to prevent unexpected behavior
We have seen the throughput dropped due to external noisy environment
and the radio is out of tune.  There are lot of plcp errors indicating
this condition. Eventually the station can get de-authenticated by the
Access Point.  By resetting and tuning the radio, the plcp errors are
reduced or eliminated and the throughput starts to rise.

To prevent unexpected behavior such as drop in throughput or deauthentication,
- The change provides the driver feature to monitor and tune the radio base on
the statistics notification from the uCode.
- It also allows the setting of the plcp error rate threshold via
the plcp_delta under debugfs interface.

afbdd69af0 iwlwifi: add function to reset/tune radio if needed
Adding "radio reset" function to help reset and stabilize the radio.

During normal operation, sometime for unknown reason, radio encounter
problem and can not recover by itself; the best way to
recover from it is to reset and re-tune the radio. Currently, there is
no RF reset command available, but since radio will get reset when
switching channel, use internal hw scan request to force radio
reset and get back to normal operation state.

The internal hw scan will only perform passive scan on the first
available channel (not the channel being used) in associated state. The
request should be ignored if already performing scan operation or STA is
not in associated state.

Also include an "internal_scan" debugfs file to help trigger the
internal scan from user mode.

"missed beacon" notification from uCode and has more than 5 consecutive

allow user to adjust the missed beacon threshold from debugfs in case
more sensitivity calibration required for better performance in noisy
environment

The default value (=5) should be good enough for the normal condition,
but for very noisy environment, more sensitivity calibration could help
improve the throughput, so by setting the missed beacon threshold to
lower number, user might experience better performance result.

a9e1cb6a78 iwlwifi: add continuous uCode event log capability
In order to help uCode debugging, adding the capability to provide
continuous uCode event logging function.

uCode events is located in round-robin event queue and filled by uCode,
by enable continuous event logging, driver check the write pointer
and log the newly added events in iwl_bg_ucode_trace() timer function.

There is still possibility of missing events if event queue being
wrapped before next event dump; but with this capability, we can have
much better understanding of the uCode behavior during runtime; it can
help to debug the uCode related issues.

Methods to enable/disable the continuous event log:
step 1: enable ucode trace timer
     "echo 1 >
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing"
step 2: start ftrace
     sudo ./trace-cmd record -e iwlwifi_ucode:* sleep 1d
step 3: stop ftrace
     sudo ./trace-cmd report trace.dat
step 4: disable ucode trace timer
     "echo 0 >
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing"

use "ucode_tracing" debugfs file to display number of event
queue wrapped when driver attempt the continuous event logging. If event
queue being wrapped more than once when driver has opportunity to log
the event; it indicated there are events missing in the event log trace.

This continuous event log function only available for 4965 and newer
NICs.

e932a609e9 iwlwifi: LED cleanup

connected to is pointless as we don't use the triggers
anyway.

Remove all the useless code and add hooks into the
driver itself. At the same time, make the LED code
abstracted so the core code that determines blink rate
etc. can be shared between 3945 and agn in iwlcore.

At the same time, the fact that we removed the use of
the mac80211 LED triggers means we can also remove the
IWLWIFI_LEDS Kconfig symbol since the LED support is
now self-contained.

f204b2487e iwlwifi: show current tx power
debugFs file show current tx power for all the transmit chains

Adding "tx_power" file in /sys/kernal/debug/ieee80211/phy0/iwlagn/debug
to display current tx power for all the active chains in 1/2 dB step.

Show tx power information "Not available" if uCode can not provide the
information or interface is down.

e312c24cf8 iwlwifi: automatically adjust sleep level
Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211)
we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has
a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to
stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive
response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the
sleep command.

Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default
to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter
to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency
requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due
to requiring more testing.

The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the
deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking
latency requirements.

This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device)
when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is
not of big concern.

Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for
thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using
the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs
to allow easier testing of such parameters.

    uCode_rx_stats
    uCode_general_stats
and can be found in /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/iwlagn/debug

The statistic information display in debugFs is based on the last
statistics notification from uCode; it might not reflect the current
uCode activity. Using "watch" command to monitor the uCode
activity should give up-to-date statistics provided by uCode.

20594eb0da iwlwifi: new debugging feature for dumping data traffic
The traffic buffer will only beallocated and used if either bit 23
(IWL_DX_TX) or bit 24 (IWL_DL_RX) of "debug" is set;
example: "debug=0x800000" - log tx data traffic
         "debug=0x1000000" - log rx data traffic
         "debug=0x1800000" - log both tx and rx traffic

The traffic log will store the beginning portion (64 bytes)  of the
latest 256 of tx and rx packets in the round-robbin buffer for
debugging,
user can examine the log through debugfs file.

How to display the current logged tx/rx traffic and txfifo and rxfifo
read/write point:
"cat traffic_log" in /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/iwlagn/debug
directory

By echo "0" to traffic_log file will empty the traffic log buffer and
reset both tx and rx taffic log index to 0.

3d816c77ec iwlwifi: re-introduce per device debugging
Commit "iwlwifi: make debug level more user friendly" cleaned up the
debug level handling. In doing so it created a single global debug
level for all devices. Some setups do consits of more that one iwlwifi
device and in these setups there is a requirement that debug levels
should be unique per device.

We now re-introduce the per device debugging while maintaining the
cleanup effort of the previous patch.

The maintain the global debug level and now introduce a per-device debug
level that will be used if it (the per-device debug level) is set. The
per-device debug level can be controlled via the debug_level sysfs file
while the global debug level is controlled by the debug module parameter.
